Cub V Head

Tracing its roots back to one of the most iconic circuits in Bad Cat history, the all new Cub V is a masterful blend of heritage and modern innovation. A true testament to where classic tone meets cutting-edge craftsmanship.


Featuring switchable EF86/12AX7 Preamp tubes and an incredible tube driven spring reverb, the Cub V offers diverse sonic potential unlocking a wide array of tonal possibilities.


Each Cub V is not only hand-wired in Southern California but also meticulously point-to-point soldered by our passionate team of engineers. This ensures unmatched precision and craftsmanship in every amp.


We’ve reintroduced the iconic Bad Cat eyes to our new hand-wired series. A nod to the legacy that defines a Bad Cat amplifier and the ultimate tone.


The Cub V is available in 15-watts (2 x EL84) and 40-watts (2 x EL34) configurations, both offered as either a head or as our signature combo amp including a UK Made Celestion 12-inch custom Bad Cat speaker.
